Bio:

Ladon hails from the barren wastes of the Parched Southwest. He was born to nomads who taught him the only true law: only the strong survive the sands. Ladon never expected to leave the shifting dunes. In his tribe, there was another boy of the same age who Ladon was quite fond named Delita. When they became men in the eyes of their tribe, they left together on a week-long trial, which would prove disastrous. Delita convinced Ladon to finally cross the Piomba and travel into the Fields of Ash, a thing the two had dreamed of despite repeated warnings from their elders. What nightmare befell the two sand-dwellers on their trial is unknown, even to Ladon. Four days after the trip began, Ladon wandered back to his tribe, glassy-eyed and rambling about emeralds. Delita never returned.
